South Burlington, VT – Magic Hat Brewing Company recently announced the return of Belgo Sutra – a highly exclusive, small batch Belgian Dark Ale brewed with six different malts and fermented over figs and dates. With an ABV of 8.2%, Belgo Sutra offers a deep complexity that will pleasure the palate and leave taste buds begging for more.

“Belgo Sutra is our take on a Belgian Dark Strong Ale. We pulled out all the stops on this one to deliver a unique profile,” said Chris Rockwood, Head Brewer, Magic Hat Brewing Company. “By adding Belgian dark candi sugar, figs and dates to the primary fermentation tank, we infused beautiful tones of dark fruits layered over a malt body. With just enough hops to keep it from being too sweet, this delightfully sensual beer ends with flavors that are sure to excite beer lovers everywhere.”

Belgo Sutra is extremely limited. It is only available on draft at the Magic Hat Artifactory®, the brewery’s on-site tasting room in Burlington, VT, as well as on tap at some of the top beer bars across the country.

Born in 1994… Magic Hat Toasts to 21 years!

Magic Hat is celebrating its 21st birthday by throwing it back to the ’90s by releasing two of its early beers.

Magic Hat Ale, the first beer that the Vermont Brewery ever brewed, is making an appearance for a limited time. This Irish-style Red Ale delivers a tantalizing combination of an intoxicating nose, smooth malty palate with a spicy finish and a ruby red hue.

In addition to Magic Hat Ale, the Vermont Brewery is bringing back its coveted Miss Bliss, a spicy Wry Ale with rich malt character. Rated “world-class” by The Bros at Beeradvocate when it debuted in 1998, Miss Bliss has not been brewed since. A new generation of beer drinkers and Miss Bliss’ original fans will have the chance to add a little zest to their lives with notes of rye bread and a touch of caramel, followed by a dash of coriander and orange peel, ending in a spicy-sweet finish.

Magic Hat Ale and Miss Bliss are available within both 12-paks and 24-paks of Magic Hat’s Night of the Living Dead Variety Pak. These packs can be found at select grocery, convenience and club stores nationwide, as well as on tap at the Magic Hat Artifactory®, the brewery’s on-site tasting room in Burlington, VT.
